The XX - Open Eyes (demo)

We are eagerly awaiting new material from The XX. Their debut album was pure magic, and nearly two years on it is still finding constant rotation in our lives. To tie us over until the new album drops, they have seen to it that we get a taste of some new material, albeit in demo form. Haunting beautiful are adjectives that pop into our head upon the initial listen. It is however, far more sparse than their previous material so if you are expecting a repeat of their first album you may be in for a disappointment.
